How can I synchronize podcasts using Ubuntu One?

rated 0 times [ 0] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 408 / 2 Years ago, sun, march 27, 2022, 7:55:43

I use Rhythmbox's podcast feature, to automatically download new podcast episodes from feeds which I've subscribed to. I also happen to use Ubuntu on several computers, all synced to the same Ubuntu One account.

What I want to do, is to synchronize downloaded podcasts as well as Rhythmbox's list of podcast subscriptions between my computers, so that the podcast view in Rhythmbox appear the same on all computers. How can I do that?

Locate the files you wish to sync
Then, via ln -s you can link them into your Ubuntu One Folder.
For example: I want to link 123.txt in my home folder to my Ubuntu One:

ln -s /home/name/123.txt /home/name/"Ubuntu One"

It is "Ubuntu One" and not just without " because there is an space in the folder name.

In your case it is the opposite way, as you want the files to be stored in your Ubuntu One:

ln -s /home/name/"Ubuntu One"/Podcasts /home/name/Podcasts

Do this on every computer you want to sync with
